Phelps v. Spitz: Cheer for the everyman

Generally, the most important conversations of our lives take place at barbecues. Everyone knows that. Everyone also knows why steroids made Hulk-a-mania awesome, while making Barry Bonds look like a tool. You could clearly see the juice leaking out of the Hulkster's bicep every time he flexed, but ...

Red Sox's Manny had to go

Manny Ramirez is, arguably, the best right-handed hitter of our generation, and yes, I am including Alex Rodriguez. But, numbers aside, the best thing about Manny is that you know he is one of the hardest-working players in the game, and yet, he never looks like he isn't enjoying himself out there. ...

Celtics give hope to hungry fans

Isn't it amazing how quickly things can change? Just a few months ago I was embarrassed to be a Celtics fan. Seriously, every time one of my boys brought up basketball, it made me feel like I just got caught wiping a booger under my desk.

New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick was hit with a $500,000 fine late last week for videotaping the New York Jets' defensive signals in their season opener.

Red Sox coasting into the playoffs?

Now, I don't want to be a worrisome Walter, but there's a lot more than Sam Adams brewin' in Beantown this September. There is also trouble, in case you didn't get that. Sure, the Sox are headed into the playoffs and currently own the best record in the big leagues, but don't be fooled, they are my ...
